maybe its just me, but a LOT of the characters in LOL seem to have 'childlike' voices, whether this is due to editing the sound files, or gettin child actors i dont know. Our only choices seem to be getting children or adolescents (see annie, veigar, nunu, amumu, teemo, etc) to start with, which is fine to a point but gets irritating when theres a lot like that. A bunch of the characters have more normal voices but it seems that a large portion are set from the perspective of teens or children. It'd be nice to have a few more adult voices - that arn't heavily synthesized (see cho'gath, kassadin, etc) Just my opinion

Just my opinion, but I'd like to believe there's 'a character for everyone' - some adult and straightforward, some cartoon-y, some sci-fi, some silly, some tinytoon, even some sexy. Wouldn't you agree that's a good thing?

Also, irritating your fellow players with your character's voice seems to please a lot of players

As was already largelly discussed in this thread: http://beta.leagueoflegends.com/boar...ead.php?t=8051

There are all kinds of champions, and imo, the child/cartoon champions are the better ones. They have alot of presonality.

rereading my original post it seemed very confrontational, i apologise about that. i wasn't meaning to criticise the voices in any way, i enjoy the personality of the characters, it just seemse that there is an abundance of the child voices and not as much of the others.

while i agree its good to have some, remember you're going to hear what you're playing most, not what your ally or enemy is playing. and im not saying i dislike the children voices, it just seems theres a ton of them, and most of them seem centred around the caster side of play. Since i primarily like the caster voices it gets a little irritating always hearing the game from a younger perspective.

Occasionally ill go play one of the other characters like sion or Taric or something (since i generally dislike playing carry heros) but my favourites are the casters, and thats where most of the younger VO's are situated. Maybe i just play the wrong ones but its just what i seem to find. I guess it would seem a bit different if they were spread a bit more.

Ah - I see your point now, and just to be clear, I didn't take your original post as confrontative at all.

Now that I understand, you make a *very* good point - a very strong argument could be made for having an equal variety of voice/character styles available for each type of champion. That's absolutely something to consider moving forward.

Thanks for the follow-up!

thanks for the replies and glad i could provide some useful feedback

For me it is not so much the presence of kiddy voices that annoy me, it is that they are done poorly. The acting is way over-the-top for some, and a lot of them are just too high pitched or screechy (even non kiddies like Corki do this). The lines some of them say are extremely obnoxious when coupled with the bad voices.

I think Annie is one of the better child-like voices, it is more subdued and not blatantly in-your-face. Some voices like Yeti and Veigar are so bad, I never want to play as them again.
